You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3.692 x 10^6 square miles + 1.18 x 10^6 square miles =
4.872 x 10^6 square miles
You merely add them (without touching the powers of ten), making sure that your answer is still in proper scientific notation, which it is...
If you need it in decimal notation, that would be
4,872,000 square miles
